Why this pick

The Lakers and Golden State have met five times since 10 April, and the highest of those games came to 222 points, 26.5 short of the Best Bet line of Under 248.5, Including Overtime. Neither team's ordinary scoring suggests this one should go much past 220 either.

176 to 222 across the five meetings

The Lakers won 119-103 at Golden State on 10 April, then lost 104-72 there on 4 July and 92-88 at home on 19 July, the two lowest games of the run. Golden State won both October games, 124-98 at home on 7 October and 101-89 in Los Angeles on 14 October, so the five totals read 222, 176, 180, 222 and 190. Add the Warriors' scoring and conceding averages this season, 113.8 and 106.3, and their games come to about 220 points, while the Lakers' 106.8 and 111.8 come to about 219. The projection lands in the same place, with 111 for Golden State and 108 for the Lakers.
